I just called the nursing department and found out that Denton is changing the FNP program to 100% online, not the hybrid of face-to-face/online, starting this year and that would actually increase the tuition by ~$10,000, which I did not expect at all!!! This online program has a set tuition rate of $638 per credit hour so if you are a resident or not, everyone would pay that same rate. What's the point of going to a state school then? I am so taken aback right now because this is totally unexpected for me and now I have to prepare some more funds for it.. Not so happy with this change....
